Practice Notes - SOLD

6x6 on canvas

Since following the Different Strokes from Different Folks blogspot and the work of Karin Jurick I have been inspired & challenged to try painting people more often. It has been a subject that has intimidated me. This summer, I purposefully set out to capture scenes from everyday life with my camera, thinking of painting potentials. This was from an excursion to Kingston, Ontario.

This is my first in a series of outdoor scenes capturing some of my fellow artists at work. I haven't done a lot of painting with people in them and decided it was high time to tackle the subject. Working on the paintings of the sculptures has definitely helped my confidence.
